About ICELANDIC FISHERIES - Icelandic Fisheries Exhibition
The Icelandic Fisheries Exhibition is a must attend event for anyone wanting to be updated on the latest technology, equipment and developments in the commercial fishing industry.
Fisheries in Icelandic waters are characterized by the most sophisticated technological equipment available in this field and the Icelandic fishing fleet is one of the most modern in the world. This applies to navigational techniques and fish-detection instruments as well as the development of more effective fishing gear: radar, fish finders, global positioning systems (GPS) and computer controlled fishing gear are standard equipment on most large and small fishing vessels. The most significant development in recent years is the increasing size of midwater trawls and, with increasing engine power, the ability to fish deeper with them. There have also been substantial improvements with respect to technological aspects of other gears such as bottom trawl, longline, and handline.
